dc.description.abstract | Traumatic dental injuries (TDI's) are an important public health problem in children and adolescents
worldwide. The emergency center (EC) serves as the spearhead to the hospital as it has to deal with
a broad spectrum of patients with different ailments and injuries. The level of knowledge and
doctors' practice at emergency centers (EC's) regarding TDI's has a direct impact on patient
outcomes. The current literature reports that EC doctors have insufficient knowledge of the
management of TDI's. | |
